America’s Surveillance State: Docu-series exposes NSA’s long reach

A six-part documentary showing how US intelligence agencies have penetrated all spheres of public – and private – life with their unchecked activities, enabled by huge budgets and unmatched technology, airs on RT.

“This surveillance
state is widely seen as a threat to privacy and freedom inside
the United States, and between the United States of America and
other states that oppose the use of cyberwar techniques to
monitor and undermine their own sovereignty,” producer and
presenter DannySchechter, who won two Emmys for his work for
20/20, told RT.

The third half-hour episode in the series – in which Schechterventures into America’s leading
newsrooms, and finds fear, corruption and dubious ethics – will
air on 28 January, at 07:30, 11:30 and 15:30 GMT.
